"don't worry baby, mommy's fine okay" she responded with a“Whatever” Camela responded with an eye roll at her sister remark.“Quick, find a gift warped with a gold and black horse, red and white moon, purple and white candy”“What? Did you cram all those colors and designs in your head?” Camila asked her sister in disbelieve.“Yeah” she answered, with a little twirl.“So um, in total you can have those stored in your head but can’t store your math’s answers in your head nor your past English assignment?” Camila asked in disbelieve again.“It’s different! This revolves around gifts and goodies while that subject involves extreme energies to workout” she ended her statement with a sigh.“Gifts? Energies? What are you talking about, cam” Camila asked, confused.“Just forget about it, and let focus on our mission” she sulked.“Fine” she answered with a heavy sigh.Instantly they got into work, bringing down each warped birthday boxes carefully in search of those designs.{30 minutes later}“Tada! found the last box Camila”“Good, but remember, m
Ken nodded, slightly and turned to leave the room. “Go get me Camela, she seems to be enjoying her silent moments.” He blurted. Ken took a deep breath and left the room, afterwards.He headed for Camela's room. Reaching there, he knocked on the door and waited for her response. After two minutes, there was still no response. Ken twister the knob and pushed the door open. Walking in, he stared around and searched for a glimpse of Camela. Surprisingly, she wasn't angered him the room and neither in the other room when he checked. “Oh my, where in the world could she be?” Ken asked himself. He heard a gust of wind fly in, and soon realized the window was left wide open. Immediately, he had caught a sense of what was going on. “Did she try to leave the mansion again? What is the lady thinking!” Ken exclaimed. Just then, he thought he heard some footsteps. The door shut afterwards and apparently got locked outside too. Ken tried to pull the door but it didn't open. “No way...did she ju
An hour passed, and Camela was seen leaving Leo's room. Her fist clenched hard and she stormed to her room, angrily. Leo had Once again, toyed with her. Teasing her all night long until Camela began to cry out, in frustration. After he was satisfied, he finally let Camela leave. The night went on and it was finally a new day. Leo got ready, to depart to the company. He made sure to look nice and friendly, as always. After a while, he was done and was ready to depart. Ken was waiting for him, in the living room when Leo finally emerged. “You look nice today. I mean, you always do but you look very nice.” Ken said and wore a bright smile. Leo Scoffed and rolled his eyes, “Enough with your flatters. I am used to you messing with me, with your words.” He replied..“No, no..I am very serious this time. You indeed, look exceptionally good.” Ken insisted. Ken shook his head and just shrugged him off. Ken gave up on trying to convince him and followed him out of the house. They headed f
They were all murmured, until Leo walked in. Everywhere was suddenly silent and they all stared at him.Leo walked to the CEO'S seat and sat down, adjusting his tie. He cleared his throat and started, “Well, Here I am. You all have been calling for my head on a plate, for a long time now. I am here, and it's time to table the issue.” He blurted. One of them reluctantly stood up. “We cannot keep quite any longer, and wait for you to notice. That was why we decided to schedule this meeting.” The staff stated.Leo removed his tie, completely and dropped in on the table. “Yes, right. Tell me what the actual issue is now. There's no need to hide it any more.” He said, with a straight face. His aura had changed the mood of the room, since he walked in. Everyone was quivering, a bit. They all had agreed to go against him today, but no one seemed to have the balls. Things weren't looking good until one of them finally spoke up again, “We think we're heavily underpaid, here. And when I say
Did I miss anything? The meetings hasn't started yet has it?” Clara asked. She suddenly caught Leo's angry gaze. Her breath slowed down and she took a deep breath, “Tell me, what was the thing that came up. Is it more important than this?” Leo asked. “Yes, it was my mother. She is terribly sick and needed my attention. If I hadn't gone there and transferred her to an hospital, who knows what would have happened...”Clara said, meekly. Leo finally saw a reason to pardon her. He sighed and took his seat once more. “You should have called in and announced this. We were expecting your arrival earlier.” He stated. “I am sorry, but it was something too urgent. I couldn't even think straight at some point.” Clara replied. Leo instructed her to sit and she did, afterwards. “So, I assume you already know what is going on. Do you have the same problem too? Your payment is not enough?” Leo asked. Clara cleared her throat and smiled, awkwardly. “Well...i can't say we are underpaid here. They
They shot at the car, but Ken didn't flinch at all. Leo's car was was bulletproof and they had already encountered few attacks in the past. Each time, they got away without a single scratch. The new driver on the other hand, was completely loosing it. He let out a yell, when the bullets rained on the car. “Get down, sir. They're shooting!” He exclaimed. Leo turned to him and smirked, “ it's fine, let them have their moment. The bullets won't go through at all.” He replied. The driver was still so scared and crouching,in the front seat. “Hey, hey.. what's your name? Talk to me.” Leo said, trying to calm the panicking driver. “Name? I'm Luke.” The driver responded. “Luke, good name. Just raise your head and don't panic further. Everything is fine, their bullets won't reach us.” Leo insisted. Reluctantly, Luke raised his head and stared at the windshield. The glass had been hit many times and there were so many marks. “See? It's completely...”“Sir, they're getting away at this p
“Tell me, way have you been doing precisely, all these while you were away.” He blurted.Edwin halted eating and drank a small quantity of water. “What I have been doing? I have been doing exactly the same thing everyone else has been doing, breathing!” He replied and laughed. “No, I am being serious about this. You have been watching me all these while haven't you. I was sure you were still somewhere out there, but just didn't know where previously.” Leo stated. “Well, I have indeed kept an eye on you. Every single move you have made, I've always kept my eyes pilled incase there was something you couldn't handle on your own. Surprisingly, you have done everything independently!” Mr Edwin replied. Leo was quite flattered, to hear Edwin. Buy he still wasn't satisfied. “No, you haven't told me the precise things I want to hear.” He insisted. “I didn't do too much. Just spent all my time traveling around the world, spending times with all types of women and just having a blast.” Mr E
Leo went upstairs, and to Jane's room. As he guessed, she was staying in the room closest to his. He reached the door and knocked, slightly. Before he could knock again, the door opened and Jane stared at him, curiously. He moved back a bit and cleared his throat, “Can I come in now?” He asked. Jane opened the door widely, urging him to come in. Leo nodded and walked into the room. He stared around as he walked to the chair, as he hadn't entered the room in a while. He reached the couch and took his seat, heaving a sigh of relief. “Do you want a glass of water? Oh, sorry you just finished eating.” Jane mumbled and chuckled softly. “Yes, I'm fine. I'll just tell you what I came for.” Leo replied. She took her seat, waiting for Leo to speak up. “You could see there is already a change around here. Mr Edwin, my master, is back. And he might not be the most welcoming person.” He stated.Jane smirked and switched her legs, revealing some thighs. Leo gulped and tried to ignore the enti
Mr Joe's POV She smiled broadlly and walked into the vast living room, majestically. Nia and Jax were both sitting in the living room when we talked in. “Oh, they're here! It's so good to see you again.” Nia said and hugged Camila a, tightly. Camila could not help but to cling unto her friend tightly. The two seemed to have grown bond through her intense training sessions. They both parted and we took our seats. “ Thank you so much for saving her, Mr Joe You're such a kind soul. I envy her .” Jax said and laughed. “Do they all just keep on forgetting that Camila is my most precious possession for now?" I thought to myself. I cleared my throat and smiled faintly , “Of course, it's my duty to save her whenever she's in trouble.. she's my worker isn't she.” I asked.“ I'm glad she's okay now. What are you going to do about the people that's responsible for this? Master ?" Nia asked. She was met with an awful silenceness afterwards, as no one knew how to break it to her. I sighed a
Camila's POV They all kept mute, unable to tell the doctor about what happened the previous night. “It is not really important, but since she cannot remember anything now, it might be hard for her to ever remember anything again.” Mr Joe stated. “ We will run a few more tests to see if we failed to notice something the first time. This is so surprising.” The doctor replied. I gulped and gently laid back down. Mr Joe turned to me, with a concerning look. “Are you sure you're okay, Camila” He asked.“Everything is fine, you don't have to be worried, Sir” I replied. “You should all wait outside now whilst we run the test. This should not take too long.” The doctor said, urging the three men to exit the room.They reluctantly left the room afterwards and I heaved a sigh of relief. The doctor checked my head, and now I could feel some slight pain. “How did this manage to happen to you? We were sure you sustained no serious injury. And now, You lost your memory...” He mumbled..“Umm, W
Mr Joe's POV I didn't think twice before yelling at Neo to assist me with carrying Camila to the car. We carried her into the car and all got in before Jax zoomed off with great speed. “Camila, wake up. Talk to me, who is responsible for this. They will die this same night.” I yelled, angrily..Barely ten minutes later, we were already at the closest hospital. The staffs were alerted and they took her in, on a stretcher.“Please Doctor, make sure nothing happens to her.” Neo said to the doctor, as they took her in.“You don't have to worry too much, sir. By the looks, I can tell it's just a minor accident or something close to that. She will be absolutely fine in no time.” The Doctor replied..His words only scared me but there was nothing I could do anyways. Jax and Neo emerged again and walked to me. “sir, is she okay now?” Jax asked, eagerly. “The doctors already took her in to check on her.. we'll wait and see how things go.” I replied..They both took their seats and I did so
Mr Joe's POVOur supposedly long wait, was shortened when the culprit that attacked Camila finally emerged with her friend. On the sight of the two women, My fist clenched with burning rage. I could not believe I was really letting them just walk away from this. But there was nothing I could do for now. Going back to the commissioner that they get re-arrested, would only raise suspicions. Things would be handled by me, Secretly.They reached me and halted, quite shocked to see me standing and waiting for them. “Mr...Joe?” Ellen forced the words out of her mouth. “ That's Mr Joe? What is he doing here...” Jennifer, her friend mumbled. “Someone out there went through extreme corners, to assure that you get released this night. Know well that this doesn't imply that you're finally free from everything.” I said, menacingly. Ellen gulped and cleared her throat, in uneasiness. “You do not expect us to apologize for what happened. Neither did we really do anything to her. We'll take our
Mr Joe's POV We left the building afterwards and headed for the car. The night was upon us already and it was a cold one, attached with the loud creeks of crickets. Jax got in the driver's seat and waited for us to come in too. After we had all settled in the car, He ignited the engine and drove away from the scene. Our ride went on for a very long time till we reached the police department. “Are you really sure you want to do this, Mr Joe?Once you go in, there's no coming back and I don't think they'll re-arrest them again.” Jax asked.“I obliviously do not want to do this, They tried to hurt Camila and I promised to make them pay for it. But now, It's her life that's at stake too. And I must do something before she gets hurt. I'll let the police do the dirty work while I'll deal with the culprits later.” I replied..He pondered on it and shrugged his shoulders, “Well, I guess we'll have to let it happen. It was because of her you locked them up anyways.” Jax said. I sighed and n
Mr Joe's POV I was quite shocked to see the room was completely empty. My thoughts were that there'd be an ambush and the rest would have left with Camila. Neo sighed deeply and walked further into the room. There was a table in the middle of the room and I could see an object on it. He walked to it and picked up a phone, “Boss, a phone is sitting here. Do you think It belongs to them?” Neo asked. I walked to him and took the phone from him. “This must be it, The phone he's been calling me with. Here, hold this for a a second.” I said, handing the phone to Jax. He took it, whilst I quickly searched for my phone to in my pocket. soon found it and scrolled through, for the phone line.After a short scroll, I found the line and dialed it. The phone buzzed on Jax's hand and he picked the call. “Hello?” He said, meekly..I snatched the phone from him and ended the call. “They predicted correctly, that we'd surely emerge to save Camila. It was stupid of us, not that have seen this befo
Camila's POV They all sat down, feeling exhausted. Richard's plan was in motion, but I was desperately hoping it won't go as he hopes. After a short while, one of the guards suddenly walked to Richard and tapped him, slightly. “Boss, they're here...” He whispered. Richard jolted up and rushed to the window, “What do we have here? It seems our guests has finally arrived!” He said and chuckled evilly. My heart was beginning to throb, intensely. “Is Jack truly here? Well, He won't end up falling for trap, if there's one.” I said and heaved a sigh of relief. Luke joined Richard by the window, afterwards. “Say, what should we do now, that they're here? Are we taking our leave or we'll just go for them?” He asked. Richard shook his head, “No, there's no point doing that. We'll just wait here till they leave or we'll take our leave before them. As far as we don't come in contact with them, everything should be good.” He replied. “Well, if your only aim is not to come in contact, I gue
Mr Joe's POV I shrugged my shoulders, “Do whatever you want, as long as you don't stand in my way. This is a very dangerous and serious issue. It'd be best you wait here, incase there's a need to make a quick getaway.” I replied. “I could not agree less with that, I'll wait here and you'll handle the rest. Have fun inside, and make sure not to die. It'd be bad if I get arrested tomorrow.” Jax said and waved at us. “ Just wait here, everything should be over soon. let's go, Neo” I said to my guard and opened the door. We both alighted from the car and started heading in. The building was quite a huge one but was also dark on the inside. I tried to see something from the floor but nothing was visible. I took a deep breath and headed for the entrance. We went in and soon found an elevator. After we stepped in, we went up to check what was there to see. The door slides open and we stepped out of the elevator. “Come with me, stay close.” I said and walked further in, staring around c
Mr Joe's POV Jax connected the phone and I dialed after all. The call rang and I waited. “So you've finally made your decision? Make the call now and have them released.” the man instructed. “ Yes, yes. I already sent a message to them. But first, we need to wait till I hear back from them. Who knows, they might refuse to let them go.” I replied. “Do not play games with me, Joe. You have under five hours to release them. Else, you should already know what comes after that.” He said, angrily. I turned to Jax, to check if he was making any progress. “Just wait a bit more, I'm trying to get the exact location. I've found the area already.” Jax whispered. “What was that?” The caller asked. “Oh, nothing. It shouldn't take long for them to give their reply. They would be released soon.” I replied. Before I could say anything else, he ended the call. I turned to Jax, eagerly. “Have you found it yet? The call already ended.” I asked. “Yes, I already did that long ago. There's somethin
